Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Absolutely maddening that this isn't a bigger news story outside of NI tbh. Loyalists are literally threatening to burn shit down over dual language signage, but Palestine Action are the big scary terrorists that we all need to be talking about, right?

He's seeing that Ruari's taking his (arrogantly assumed) place and he's too pathetic to tackle it, hence he lashes out at others. Just like his pathetic power games when cheating on Ian with casual staff. #TheArchers #LogAdam @thecidershedpod.bsky.social

How can you kill a Spidey? I chucked one into the garden and she's taking over, fighting against the mountain roses.
